Chapter 1

"KAGOME!"

"Coming Madam."

Kagome ran up the stairs with the madam's morning coffee.

"Good morning mam." Kagome said while setting down the tray.

"Well what are you waiting for? Poor me some NOW!"

"Oh right away madam."

Kagome handed the coffee to madam.

"On my right side table is the list of jobs I want done by the end of the day. You're dismissed."

"Thank you madam" Kagome said while grabbing the list off the table.

She stepped out of the bedroom, closed the door and hurried down the stairs reading the list out loud.

"Clean windows, wash floors, clean bathrooms, do laundry, wash bedding, clean curtains, feed animals..."

It just went on and on and on.

"Another day cleaning just like last." Kagome told herself. "Well I better get started these floors aren't going to wash them selves, though that would be nice."

Kagome was washing the floors when the memories of her Dad came to her.

"Oh dad why did you have to leave me with that wicked stepmother and sisters?"

Kagome thought back to when she was a little girl no older then 5 and still had her real mother and father. Those were the days. They would go to the park and she would eat icecream not stuck inside and doing chores her whole life.

But then she remembered when she was about 7 when her mom got badly sick and died. How sad her father had been after her mother's death. He hired a nanny to take good care of Kagome while he was at work. The nanny had two spoiled daughters their names were Kikyo and Ayame and they hated Kagome. Kagome's father eventually fell in love with the nanny and married her.

Everything was ok until Kagome turned 9 and her father also started to get sick.

Her step mom wouldn't allow Kagome to see her father but would let her own daughters in. Kagome would cry and cry so her stepmother gave her chores to do all day long. She wasn't allowed to go out side, see her father or go to school. All she did was clean.

And the worse her father got the crueller her stepmother became. It was a cold day in January when Kagome had finally had enough of this and wanted to see her father.

She stopped what she was doing and went to his room. She hesitated at the front of his doors. The doorknob started to turn and the door and out stepped her stepmom. When she saw Kagome she gave her a evil grin. Kagome ran right past her to were her father lay and the doctor was.

"Daddy." Kagome said

"Daddy." She said a litter louder. He still didn't move.

"DADDY" Kagome yelled and still nothing changed.

The doctor looked up to see a hopeful little girl staring down at her father.

"I'm so sorry little girl, you see he is...dead" said the doctor.

Those words hit Kagome like a ton of bricks.

"No...no...he can't be...gone." she stared at the doctor with tears in her eyes.

"I'm so sorry but he past away this morning."

NOOOooooo" cried Kagome

"noooooooo" she got softer and softer, soon all you could hear was soft crying.

Madam stepped into the room and found the little girl and picked her up.

"Lets go Kagome you got work to do."

"No let go of me you...you...whore."

"What did you say?" question Madam.

"You never let me see him when he was alive instead I had to do all the chores in the house. I HATE YOU!" Kagome screamed. She punched and kicked to get out of the lady's grasp.

(SLAP). Madam slapped Kagome good and hard across the face.

"Now listen to me young lady. You will march down stairs and finish the job you started then go to your room and stay there until I come and get you."

She picked up Kagome and headed down stairs.

But instead she headed for Kagome's room in the attic.

Ayame and Kikyo jumped up and down chanting: "Kagome lost her dad. Kagome lost her dad. Kagome's dad is dead hahahahahahaha."

Madam threw Kagome into her room and locked the door.

"Until you are ready to apologize to me and clean the rest of the house I don't want to see your hurriedness face again.

Once the footsteps faded away Kagome cried, and cried, and cried, and this undying hatred for her stepmother and stepsisters grew and grew.

"Kagome! Kagome!"

"Coming Kikyo"

" Kagome! Kagome!"

"Be right there Ayame."

Kagome hurried off to her stepsister's room for their morning tea.
